Luxury Linear House by Studio B Architects

Aspen-based architectural practice, Studio B Architects, has designed the Linear House project. This private family home is located in Aspen, Colorado.

According to the architect: “The 22-acre site is completely hidden from the public, is at an elevation of 9,500 feet and has spectacular views of the Elk Mountain Range. The horizontal L-shaped plan appears to float and rests upon a partially buried stone plinth.

“The upper level plan contains the public areas of the Colorado home and houses the mediation room, library and master suite.

“This solution offers views from all rooms and a rooftop terrace accessed from the inner courtyard has a viewing and sitting area.
